Franklin is reported in critical condition following a fight with Lane. Doctors say a serious brain concussion and partial paralysis resulted from the fall rather than punches. Dr Conner notes the final outcome may take two to three days to determine. Lane, weighing in 1922, felled Franklin with a right to the chin and a left that left him senseless. Franklin, once a heavyweight challenger, is described as a second or third rate fighter in recent years.
